Hey all,
I was just listening to the Lex Fridman podcast where Mark Zuckerberg mentioned Meta’s plans for a federated platform. It got me wondering: Could Reddit follow that path too?
Are there technical or financial obstacles that might prevent this? More importantly, should Reddit even consider this move? Would it be a win or a loss for us, the users, and for internet culture in general? Keen to hear your thoughts on this!
(I’m a recent Reddit refugee, fed up with the situation over there. Found Lemmy searching for info on homelab during the blackout. Found all the main things I need here. And the community is great. Like Reddit used to be. Can’t see myself going back)
Yeh. Seems to be the case. He talked about it at length. Text based to start.
I would be suspicious that they are trying to love people away from Twitter.
Then monetise other areas of their metaverse.
I was never a fan of Zuckerberg, but I finished listening to that podcast quite hopeful.
Though he could just be lying about everything to keep people on side 🤷♂️
